Definitions
- the present invention relates to a side seal unit for a linear motion mechanism and a linear motion mechanism.
- a linear motion mechanism is an essential component for mechanisms that require linear positioning accuracy while reducing friction, and other mechanisms that want to perform linear motion.
- One of the typical mechanisms is a linear motion guide device, which is called a linear guide or an LM guide (registered trademark).
- This linear motion mechanism is roughly composed of two elements, a shaft and a slider.
- the slider is for smoothly reciprocating linearly moving on the shaft, and is in contact with the shaft inside the slider.
- rolling elements and “rollers”.
- the linear motion mechanism according to the present invention having a slider and a shaft uses a linear motion guide rail having a rolling groove on a shaft having a rectangular cross section, such as a linear motion guide device (linear guide, LM guide).
- a linear bushing in which the slider slides back and forth in the axial direction on the cylindrical shaft, and a spline shaft that can increase the allowable load by rolling the ball on the groove provided on the cylindrical shaft surface There is a ball spline.
- linear motion Compared to the rotational motion widely used in bearings using bearings, etc., linear motion It is said that it is technically very difficult and advanced to commercialize the rolling element. If a rolling element can be used for linear motion, its usefulness is expected, such as a low rolling friction coefficient and a low starting resistance. However, if this is put to practical use, the demands for linear motion mechanisms such as high rigidity, labor saving, high speed and light operation, and high positioning accuracy and long service life will eventually be met. However, it was necessary to provide a satisfactory mechanism, and it was not easy to satisfy the practically required accuracy. Therefore, further ingenuity is still desired to meet these demands.
- the slider portion is provided with a slider side seal formed of a resin or elastomer material in a shape suitable for the linear motion guide rail.
- the side seals of the above-mentioned patent documents have insufficient sealing properties because the material of the lip portion that is in close contact with the linear motion guide rail in the linear motion guide device is a resin or elastomer material, and are used in a normal state.
- the rubber-based sealing material has high viscoelasticity and a high coefficient of friction, so it wears quickly and easily generates frictional heat.
- a sponge-based sealing material is used, if powder or the like enters the sealing material having bubbles, the sealing performance is easily lost.
- the lip portion is easily damaged or turned up, and if the usage conditions are such that the lip portion comes into contact with one another, a gap is likely to be formed between the lip portion and the linear motion guide rail.
- the material of the lip portion that is in close contact with the linear motion guide rail is a resin or an elastomer material. It was extremely difficult.
- the lip portion is broken or turned over, and there is a usage condition where the lip portion comes into contact with one another, resulting in a gap between the lip portion and the linear motion guide rail.
- the sealing mechanism cannot be maintained, and the outflow of the lubricating oil and the intrusion of dust or foreign matter into the slider are allowed.
- the problem to be solved by the present invention is that the seal material of the side seal unit for use at both shaft end portions of the slider of the linear motion mechanism is a few ⁇ m in diameter in addition to dust and foreign matter, compared to conventional resins and elastomers.
- the seal material of the side seal unit for use at both shaft end portions of the slider of the linear motion mechanism is a few ⁇ m in diameter in addition to dust and foreign matter, compared to conventional resins and elastomers.
- the side seal unit for use in the linear motion mechanism can be easily removed from the attachment, and can be easily replaced when the seal material is worn out.
- the further problem to be solved by the present invention is that even when the oil impregnated in the sealing material of the side seal unit for the linear motion mechanism runs out, a long life is ensured from there as compared to the previous one, and By ensuring a longer period before recognizing that the equipment has run out of oil, it is possible to maintain a state where dust, foreign matter and powder do not leak for a long time, effectively preventing malfunctions and damage to the equipment, and In the unlikely event that oil breaks out, the distance to the shaft of the linear motion guide rail that can maintain the sealing performance is increased, preventing malfunction and damage of the device due to the intrusion of dust, foreign matter, and fine particles with a diameter of several ⁇ m However, it is necessary to ensure a sufficient time margin from the replacement of the sealing material to the oil replenishment by the maintenance work.
- the first means of the present invention for solving the above-mentioned problem is that the shaft provided at the front end portion and the rear end portion of the slider of the linear motion mechanism comprising a shaft and a slider that linearly reciprocates on the shaft; A side seal unit for sealing a gap between the slider and a front end portion and a rear end portion of the slider with a fiber surface of a sealing material made of a fiber material facing the shaft side along the cross-sectional shape of the shaft It is a side seal unit for a linear motion mechanism, characterized in that it is arranged so that it can be swung.
- the second means is that the sealing material made of a fiber material uses a cut pile, and the cut pile is directed further toward the inner surface side from the ground yarn portion of the cut pile fixed to the inner surface side of the base.
- the side seal unit for a linear motion mechanism according to claim 1, wherein the side seal unit is a cut pile in which a tip of a wrinkle of pile fiber floated is cut and raised.
- the base is made of metal, resin, or a combination of metal and resin. When the base is made of metal, the base can be appropriately bent so as to conform to the casing shapes at both ends of the shaft and the slider, so that it is easy to obtain a stable base that is easy to obtain adhesion.
- a general-purpose plastic such as an ABS resin, an engineering plastic such as a polyacetal resin (POM), or the like, which can be integrally molded with a mold can be used.
- a plastic resin is light and hardly restricted in movement, and heat and force are not excessively applied. Therefore, the plastic resin can be suitably applied without causing a problem in durability.
- the third means is that the ground yarn portion of the cut pile has a warp double weave structure consisting of two layers of a surface warp and a surface layer of the front weft, and a lining warp and a back layer portion of the back weft.
- the fourth means is that the ground yarn portion of the cut pile is formed with a surface layer portion so that the surface warp yarn (a) and the surface warp yarn (b) alternately cross the surface weft yarn, and the lining warp yarn (c) Pile fabric that has a double weft structure in which the back layer portion is formed so that the back and back warp yarns (d) cross alternately with the back weft yarn, and is locked to the back weft yarn Consists of two types of fiber materials (e) and (f), wherein the pile fibers (e) and the pile fibers (f) are alternately locked to adjacent back wefts,
- a side seal unit for a linear motion mechanism according to claim 2.
- the t type of the cut pile in the below-described embodiments corresponds to an example of the fourth means.
- the fifth means is the side seal unit for a linear motion mechanism according to claim 1, wherein the sealing material made of a fiber material is made of a felt-like non-woven fabric.
- the seventh means is a linear motion mechanism comprising the linear motion mechanism side seal unit according to any one of claims 1 to 6.
- the seal material of the side seal unit for the linear motion mechanism of the present invention uses only the resin or elastomer of the lip portion material of the conventional side seal by using a seal material made of a fiber material on the contact surface of the shaft or the linear motion guide rail. Compared to the sealing material, the effect of improving the followability to the shaft (linear motion guide rail) can be obtained. As a result, in addition to dust and foreign matters, even fine particles having a diameter of about several ⁇ m can be eliminated and sealed.
- the sealing material of the present invention is configured to be easily attached and detached by attaching to the front end portion and the rear end portion of the slider, it can be easily removed from the slider and replaced, and the sealing material is worn out by any chance. In some cases, it can be easily and smoothly replaced.
- the lubricant oil impregnated in the sealing material of the side seal unit for the linear motion guide device runs out, at least 4 to 5 times as much as the conventional one because of the situation.
- the user can ensure a longer period until the device runs out of oil.
- dust, foreign matter and powder do not leak, and it is possible to effectively prevent malfunctions and damage to the equipment. By doing so, troubles can be easily avoided, and flexibility in the timing of maintenance becomes high. And the effect that the malfunction and damage of an apparatus can be effectively prevented over a long period of time is acquired.
- the cut pile has a fiber that spreads radially toward the tip because the tip is cut and raised. Therefore, it is easy to hold the oil component of the lubricant between the fibers of the cut pile. Moreover, since the fiber spreads and there is no gap, it is difficult for the fine particles to enter the inside, and a higher dustproof effect can be obtained. Also, around the weft that fixes and supports the cut pile, the cut pile tends to form a part that does not spread radially, and the cut pile near the root near the ground part has a gap around the tip compared to the tip. Cheap. Therefore, since the surface layer portion and the lower layer portion of the background double weave have a thickness, the gap between them is filled with these ground yarn portions.

- five types of shaft seals made of pile fabrics having different materials, shapes, and pile lengths were selected as examples of shaft seals using the sealing material made of the fiber material of the present invention and subjected to experiments.
- the raised pile fiber 24 is one type of polyester fiber
- the ground yarn portion 19 of the base fabric is a woven fabric of weft yarn (polyester) and warp yarn (nylon 66 / nylon 6), and the surface layer portion and the back side. It has a double weaving process consisting of two layers.
- the cut pile is a pile fiber 24 of 1.0 denier (about 10 ⁇ m diameter) polyester fiber, and the density is 660,000 per square inch.
- the t type has two types of raised pile fibers 24, and the pile fibers 24 are alternately fixed to the wefts of the ground yarn portion 19 serving as a base fabric.
- Pile 1 is a blend of 3.0 denier acrylic, 1.5 denier acrylic and 1.5 denier rayon

- the base yarn portion 19 of the base fabric is impregnate the base yarn portion 19 of the base fabric with an acrylic emulsion from the back side. If the base of the cut pile (the part tangled with the ground yarn) is coated with a ground yarn containing an acrylic emulsion, the strength near the base fabric increases and the viscosity increases, so the cut pile can easily fall off. It becomes difficult to do. If the cut pile is easily pulled out, it may become a foreign object that can be caught between rails and the like, which may be a factor that impedes linear motion. Therefore, making it difficult to escape from the cut pile is effective in reducing trouble and obtaining stable exercise for a long time.
- the penetrating height is set to the height of the base fabric from the back surface. If it suppresses, since the front end side of a pile yarn will not become firm, it will be suitable, and even if it contains oil of a lubricant in the front end side of a pile, it will not be hindered.
- the pile fabric used for the shaft seal is cut from the ground yarn portion of the cut pile fixed to the inner surface side of the metal or resin base toward the inner surface side. It is a pile fabric made of cut pile that is raised by cutting the tip of the hoop of the pile fiber that has been floated.
- the ground yarn part of the cut pile consists of the surface layer part of the surface warp and the surface weft, the lining warp and the back weft. This is a weft double weave structure consisting of two layers of the back layer portion, and the pile fiber is locked to the back weft.
- Table 3 shows a list of various sealing materials attached to the linear bush.
- the linear bushing was passed through the LM shaft at two locations, and a portion where the shaft was in direct contact with the powder was provided to perform a linear motion.
- the shaft seal was attached between the powder and the linear bush, and the total travel distance was calculated from the number of reciprocations when leakage occurred. The larger the numerical value, the better the sealing performance.
- the invention of the present invention controls the pile length in a severe condition where there is no oil, so that it is five times that of the conventional structure. It was confirmed that it was possible to ensure a high lifetime (about each example).
- the durability of a linear bush in the absence of oil or grease is about 470 km in terms of the total travel distance. From this test result, if there are many powders such as carriers in the atmosphere of the environment in which the equipment is used, the life that the linear bush should originally have will be shortened to 1/100 or less, However, it has been confirmed this time that if the shaft seal of the present invention is used, the lifetime that should be shortened to 1/100 or less may be extended by 4 to 5 times.
- the linear bush life is likely to be reduced in a severe environment where there are many fine powders consisting of extremely fine particles such as toner in the atmosphere of the environment in which the equipment is used, but the shaft seal of the present invention is used.
- a decrease in the life of the linear bushing was suppressed, and that a significant life extension effect could be expected up to about 1000 times that of the conventional one.
- the torque value is slightly increased as compared with the state without the seal material.
- the pile length is not too long, there is no problem in using the device. It turned out to remain in value. And it is thought that about 2.5 mm is suitable as a pile length.

In this test, the moving torque of the linear bush when various sealing materials were attached was measured. Even if the sealing material of the present invention is used, it is confirmed that there is no increase in moving torque that hinders the operation of the apparatus.
試験例1と同様の機器及びシール材を用いた。シール性の評価と同じ条件で軸シールおよびリニアブッシュを取り付けた。軸を挿入した状態で、デジタルフォースゲージの測定部に評価機を固定し、評価機を引っ張り、動き始めた瞬間のトルクを記録した。 <Materials and methods>
The same equipment and sealing material as in Test Example 1 were used. A shaft seal and a linear bush were attached under the same conditions as in the evaluation of sealability. With the shaft inserted, the evaluator was fixed to the measuring part of the digital force gauge, the evaluator was pulled, and the torque at the moment of starting to move was recorded.
上記方法のようにして、移動トルクを評価した。結果を表5に示す。 <Result>
The moving torque was evaluated as described above. The results are shown in Table 5.
以上、直動案内装置のリニアブッシュに本発明の軸シールをさらに装着したものとすることで、微粉体が多数存在する環境下においても、低トルクにてしかも大幅に寿命を確保できることがわかった。 In the condition with the seal material using the shaft seal of the embodiment, the torque value is slightly increased as compared with the state without the seal material. However, as long as the pile length is not too long, there is no problem in using the device. It turned out to remain in value. And it is thought that about 2.5 mm is suitable as a pile length. Moreover, it was possible to suppress the increase in torque to a lower level by appropriately selecting the type of the sealing material.
As described above, it was found that, by further mounting the shaft seal of the present invention on the linear bushing of the linear motion guide device, even in an environment where a large number of fine powders exist, a low torque and a long life can be secured. .
